    (Universidad EAFIT, 2019) Villegas Serna, Sandra Milena; Flórez Cano, Luisa Fernanda; Ospina Mejía, Jaime Alberto
    The current economic development and our knowledge of financial markets increasingly face new challenges that drive the emergence of previously unimaginable initiatives, such as cryptocurrencies, particularly bitcoin, which arises as a way of transformation of the traditional forms of exchange, defined by the current financial system that undoubtedly must change. The purpose of this paper is to show how bitcoin and blockchain works, showing the potential that both concepts have from their different scopes (bitcoin as an investment asset, and blockchain as technology applicable in different industries); also, with the aim of understanding within the Colombian context how accepted is bitcoin as an option of exchange, the results of a survey made to different companies that consider this cryptocurrency to be a valid payment option are presented, identifying which were their motivators.
